The old emperor gave Chen Decai a look, and the other party quickly brought in the Minister of Works.
"This old minister pays homage to His Majesty."
"No need to be polite. Tell me, what are you doing here, old man?"
"Your Majesty, the large ship for sailing has been almost completed."
[So fast? ]
[Oh~ It turns out that the Ministry of Works already has a large ship. Renovating it based on that ship will save money and be quick. The Minister of Revenue must be very happy with the Minister of Works. ]
The old emperor raised the corners of his lips in pleasure. He liked it very much.
If Daye had more capable officials like this, there would be no worries about its prosperity.
"Let the Imperial Astronomical Observatory choose a good day to set sail."
“Yes.”
By the time the Imperial Observatory picked out a good day, it was already several days later.
Many ministers gathered in Yanying Hall to discuss how to attack Goguryeo.
[It's really troublesome to fight a war. We have been procrastinating for so long and we haven't even started yet. 】
[Be careful that the King of Goguryeo may run away with his wife and children. ]
The old emperor smiled confidently.
Goguryeo was close to Daye on one side and the sea on the other. Where could it run to?
The group discussed for a whole morning and finally came up with a satisfactory solution.
The next step is to implement the plan.
After Shen Zhiyi finished recording, the director of the Imperial Observatory came over with the date of departure for the voyage.
"Your Majesty, after careful deduction, I believe the fifth day of next month is a good day to travel."
The emperor was overjoyed.
"Okay, then the date will be the fifth of next month. Minister of Works, have General Weihu and his wife get ready and pack their things. It's time to set off."
“Yes.”
[The fifth day of next month? ]
[The fifth day of next month is not suitable for traveling. ]
The hall suddenly became quiet, and the old emperor looked at Shen Zhiyi in surprise.
Shen Zhiyi can observe the celestial phenomena?
How come he didn't see that?
[Obviously, the sixth day of next month is a better date. Even I know this, so the director of the Imperial Observatory cannot be unaware of it.]
Everyone was silent, waiting for Shen Zhiyi's thoughts, but no one expected that there would be any movement.
He glanced secretly at Shen Zhiyi, who was staring at the top of their heads in a trance.
Some ministers couldn't control the gloating expressions on their faces.
This supervision is over, Shen Zhiyi will definitely strip the other person down to his underwear.
[Oh, it turns out that this supervisor doesn't know how to observe the night sky, tell fortunes, or calculate time. No, he doesn't know any of these. Why do we still want him to be the supervisor? ]
--illiteracy.
The system that had been silent for some time began to appear like a ghost.
[Hey, can't you fix the stupid system bug and come out to get some fresh air? ]
System: It doesn't have to be so real. It's a pure and harmless system.
However, as a system that knows everything, it decided to forgive the other party's rudeness and generously explain the supervision to the other party.
——Supervisory officials are not allowed to be appointed to other official positions, and their descendants are not allowed to change to other professions.
[Oh, family official position. ]
[What if all the prison officers die? ]
——Find someone. The Ministry of Rites is responsible for searching and trying out suitable candidates.
[In this case, it is no wonder that the supervisor cannot learn anything about astronomical phenomena, but still pretends to learn it.]
The old emperor's look towards the director of the Imperial Observatory was not particularly kind.
Just this one glance frightened the director of the Imperial Observatory so much that he fell to his knees.
[The descendants of the supervisors cannot change to other professions, so they will just stay on this path forever. ]
——That’s true, but if people study for more than ten years or even dozens of years, they will at least have a general understanding of it, even if they are not proficient in it.
The system paused for a moment, and a few lines of words fell on the head of the director of the Imperial Observatory.
——Except this idiot.
[Uh, system, you are so rude to call me a fool. ]
[But it’s really stupid. ]
The director of the Imperial Observatory was heartbroken.
That’s what he thought, that’s what he thought!!!
He didn't like astronomical phenomena at all and couldn't learn them at all.
But since he was born, he had no other choice but to study astronomy.
[The father of the director of the Imperial Observatory was the previous director. He was afraid that the position would fall into the hands of other officials, so his son would never be able to learn it. So he simply packaged his son as a genius with great talent in astronomy, but in fact he was nine out of ten and knew nothing. ]
The old emperor felt a little confused after hearing this.
It's impossible that the other supervisors didn't notice it. After the previous supervisor passed away, the true face of this supervisor should have been exposed by now.
As someone who was very keen on gossip, Shen Zhiyi was naturally keen and noticed this.
She quickly glanced over the life of the director of the Imperial Observatory and couldn't help but click her tongue.
[This is so shocking. The last time I was so shocked was when I used my cell phone to commit suicide for love. I didn’t expect to meet the director of the Imperial Observatory again.]
[Although the director of the Imperial Observatory himself did not have any talent, his son did. So when his father was alive, it was his father who packaged him. After his father died, it was his son who packaged him.]
It was the first time that the director of the Imperial Observatory witnessed Shen Zhiyi's power. He didn't expect that such a private matter would be exposed.
He wiped the sweat from his face nervously, and suddenly someone patted his shoulder.
When I turned around, it was the prince.
The prince lowered his voice and whispered in his ear: "I envy you. I really envy you."
Director of the Imperial Observatory: ???
What is there to envy?
Do you understand that he has been living in fear for so many years, and yet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is actually envious of him.
Are you making fun of him?
The prince saw the emotion in the other's eyes and said quickly, "I am not mocking you. I am sincere. I really hope that before I became emperor, I would have a father to do the work, and after I became emperor, I would have a son to do the work, but my son is not very capable."
The prince thought that he had to go back and continue having children with the princess, so as to give birth to a child of better quality.
The old emperor's mouth twitched fiercely.
Itchy hands.
Want to beat.
But bear with me for now.
[Logically speaking, his father and his son are both trustworthy people, so it wouldn't be difficult for the Imperial Observatory to keep the truth a secret for a lifetime.]
Director of the Imperial Observatory: Yes, it is not a difficult task, but we have a lady like you.
The supervisor couldn't help sobbing softly.
[But unfortunately, his son was short-lived and had congenital deficiencies. Even if the Supervisor gave up his position to his son, he would not be able to stay in office for long. So his son got married when he was very young, hoping to have a son right away.]
[Who would have thought that the son of the director of the Imperial Observatory and his wife had been married for two years, and not to mention his grandson, his own son was almost driven to death by the torture.]
[Then, this family came up with a bad idea...]
After Shen Zhiyi finished reading it, he couldn’t help but yell.
[This is a really bad idea.]
The system, in order to watch the fun, moved the surveillance camera directly to the top of the head of the director of the Imperial Observatory and played a clip over and over again.
Shen Zhiyi: …
What a damaged system.
